Shownotes

In this episode I share four engaging back-to-school scavenger hunts aimed at getting students up, moving, and familiar with their classroom and school surroundings. The hunts include a classroom scavenger hunt for basic items, a supply scavenger hunt with math tools, a Pete the Cat themed hunt combining reading and a school tour, and a Brown Bear, Brown Bear inspired hunt incorporating book clues. By strategically timing these activities and incorporating hidden lessons, teachers can create memorable learning experiences while achieving specific objectives for the school year.

In this episode I share:

  • Importance of Scavenger Hunts
  • Pete the Cat Scavenger Hunt
  • Brown Bear, Brown Bear Scavenger Hunt
